World-renowned as "The Player's Choice" among guitarists of all genres and styles. EXL strings are wound with nickel-plated steel and known for their distinctive bright tone and reduced fret wear. EXL115s are among D'Addario's most popular round-wound, nickel-plated electric guitar strings.

D'Addario is the world's largest manufacturer of strings for musical instruments. Many top guitarists won't play any other brand. Regardless of your playing style, D'Addario has a string set that's right for you.

I've tried strings of all shapes, sizes and companies. Gauges from 9s to 12s (it was a phase..)

I recently started using D'Addarios on my acoustic and my electric, and this gauge in particular is perfect for what I play on my electric. Not too heavy, and not too bendy, it gives just enough tension to get nice bends and tones. Felt a nice fuzzy feeling inside me when I put these strings on and plugged my guitar in!

I purchased these strings 2 weeks ago hoping to finally find a go-to set that lasted a while. I love this range of strings in this set. I play about half an hour a day during the week and about 2 hours everyday on the weekend. After about A week I took my guitar out of the case and my D string snapped right at the 12th fret. Even though i am not fond of them my ernie balls lasted way longer and were more consistent but if i was hitting the studio i would load up with these guys because they initially sound pretty sweet. If you are an experienced musician like myself looking for a set to buy everytime and rely on, this is not your set.

Rich, warm, and balanced tone. With the higher tension you can really dig in and get aggressive. Ringing sustain. Long lasting and retain their brightness for a few good weeks. Best strings I've played with.

These are great electric guitar strings for a great price. They go into their sweet spot quickly and stay there for a while. My strings are usually in their sweet spot in 1-2 days and last for 2-3 months. These are the only strings i get for my electric guitar.

I own, among other electric guitars, an L-4 copy by Washburn for jazz and blues and my local dealer suggested these when I first bought it to replace the factory strings. They have brilliance in their tone, deep resonance on the low strings, and they hold their sound for a very long time. Since I don't use this gem very often, I can actually get by with changing the strings about every 6 months - as compared to every 2-3 months on my Les Paul. I tried the 12's out on it once and there was too much buzz on the low strings due to how my action was set up, so 11's are primo choice for my axe. I will give the 12's their due, however, in that their sound was full, bright and super output on the lower strings - perhaps a bit too much, they are offered at a great price, how can you say no to that? For jazz style electrics (ES-335, L-4, L-5, etc), I would recommend these in a heartbeat! As some have said here before, "Just buy them - you won't be disappointed!" Great strings, great price, great sound, and great value. These babies work!

I bought a set of these strings awhile ago because they were out of my normal set. After putting them on I soon realized how bright and twangy they were! I noticed that the bottom strings were nice and clear and punchy. I play Country/Rockabilly and Swing- Rock on hollow body Gretch and with this gauge set 11-49 my guitar stay's in tune much better even when wacking all night long on the Bixby tremolo. I changed these strings after about 4 months to something else and immediately switched back to these strings. The nickel sounds great, and they last me a long time. I would recommend these strings highly...

My Jaguar doesn't like thin strings that sound weak and like to jump out of the saddles during aggressive play. These solve the problem. They sound very good overall... they may (MAY) be a little bright sounding with a touch of thinness, but that could be my guitar and amplifier, too. I do get good tone out of them and they're strong, long lasting and durable. The feel is fantastic, they really fit the guitar well, the sound is at least satisfactory and the sale price is phenomenal. I'll buy more.
